Expert Reply:
It depends on the lift type that is on your Silverado. If it is a body lift, meaning the frame is still the same distance from the axle as stock, then you can still use the appropriate air bag system for your truck. But if it is a suspension lift then the air bags will not fit unless you use spacers, # F2375, designed for vehicles with a 6 inch lift.
